Description
OS X El Capitan + Anaconda 2.4 (Python 3.5) + matplotlib 1.4.3
At ipython terminal:
In [1]: import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
In [2]: plt.plot(range(5))
Out[2]: [<matplotlib.lines.Line2D at 0x1085feef0>]
In [3]: plt.show()This works. However, if I call plt.xkcd(), things fall apart.
In [4]: plt.xkcd()
Out[4]: <matplotlib.rc_context at 0x1097b3d68>
In [5]: plt.plot(range(5))
Out[5]: [<matplotlib.lines.Line2D at 0x10a2eb240>]
In [6]: plt.show()

AttributeError: 'GraphicsContextBase' object has no attribute 'draw_path'But in jupyter notebook or jupyter qtconsole where %matplotlib inline works, the above issue goes away. Namely, the following works.
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
%matplotlib inline
plt.xkcd()
plt.plot(range(5))
